Police say Lightfoot employed drug ‘runners’ to deliver the heroin and cocaine to help conceal her identity. Dodge County District Attorney Kurt Klomberg told the court that the defendant was the head of an organization selling heroin and cocaine. “The defendant was sophisticated enough to design and run an operation where getting drugs was as easy and convenient as ordering a pizza,” Klomberg told the court. “The business ran so well it operated even when she was gone out of state,” he added.
